Salt Lake City

I hope to write about weather trends in Salt Lake City, Utah. I have not decided what I would like to look into specifically, but perhaps something with snowmelt trends would be interesting, as that is where a large amount of the city’s water comes from. I also might want to look at how changing climate trends affect animal behavior.
